much and will rapidly grow. Do we not
show our fine babes With much filial
pride? This missionary work is the lat
est born of the modern church. 1t is a
most remarkable and hopeful infant.
Side by side with this growth in mis-
sion work has been the church's most
rapid growth In numbers. Eighteen
centuries after Christ William Carey be-
gan his great work. There were then
but 174,OO0,OOO Christians in the world.
Now there are 440, 100000. The church
may point with just pride to her rapidly
growing millions in these last years.
This is the city that cannot be hid;
the New Jerusalem on Mount lions
all clOudland. The city that is rousing
herself as never before since the apos-
tOlic age to heroic work and world con-
quest. Her creed is "Christ for the
world, and the world for Christ"
Din every age Jesus leads an army
heavenward greater than Xerxes ever
dreamed of. Among it's hosts there go
such kindly souls as Paul and Savona-
rola and Luther; Huss and Wycliff and
Tyndale; Carey, Judson and Howard,
and thousands comparatively nameleSS
here. yet equally royal in the richness of
their faith and their cOnstancy in hum
BILE works of righteousness.
I glory in this host of the redeemed
moving constantly .heavenward through
the years, and in their beneficent work
on earth. 1t is showing too great for
earth, more than of man, and truly
miraculous. But we should glory most
of all in the thorn-crOwned and cruci-
fed, yet arisen and eternally triumph
ant leader of this host, even Jesus, the
Son of God and the Savior of man.

SATURDAYS BIG FIRE.
A Review of the Damage Done BY
the Flames.

All day long curious crowds surged
around the spot where the five saw
mills burned Saturday night, anxious to
see all that wa to beseen. Big piles of
blackened beams and smouldering en-
bers were to be seen on every hand. In
some cases the upright beams which
had supported the roofs remained
standing, and stood swaying in
the wind. Watchmen prevented the
crowd from venturing upon the plat
form, which had been burned through
in some places and sagged badly in
others. The loss ON buildings is trifle
less than at first supposed, amounting
to about $4,000, as follows: W. W.
Eastman Cole & Weeks, $4,000; East
man, Bovey & Co., 1000; McMullen &
Co., $4,000; c. A. Smith & Co., S27 900;
Merriman, Barrows & Co., s31, 900. Mr..
Eastman's insurance is S21, 800; East
man, Bovey IL Co.'s, $4,000; McMullen
& Co.'s, $4,000; G. A. Smith q Co.'s,
$4,000; Merriman 81 Barrow's, $50, GOO.
1t is not likely that the mills will be re-
built. Over 1000 men are thrown out
of employment by the burning Of the
mills, and as the work in the mills has
been especially dull the past summer it
comes decidedly hard upon them.

A RESTFUL SUNDAY.
And How Restless Minneapolitans
Put it In.

Yesterday was such a charming day
that thousands of people availed them
of that fact to take an airing at some of
the many pleasant resorts that surround
the city.
A general tour revealed the fact that
at the lakes their was an immense
crowd OH foot and in carriages, and
boating was also INDUCED in to great
extent. Minnehaha glen was crowded
all day with folks who seemed to have
come to stay, as numbers could be seen
sitting in groups and discussing
in happy manner several baskets
provided with dainty eatables, the chill
dren had their bottles along for sand
and every one seemed to be enjoying
themselves thoroughly. At the West
Side Turner hall a benefit was given
the Cadet band, of Milwaukee, which
was quite an enjoyable affair. 1t was
largely attended and melted the boys
substantial sum. Prof. Hensler and
his popular band left the city for home
over the Wisconsin Central train which
leaves the Union depot at $40 p. m.
Over at the Exposition general still
ness reigned, which was broken for
short time in the morning by rehearsal
of the Liberati band. The booth for the
reception of wedding presents is rap
idly being filled up with tasteful and
pretty articles. A few exhibitors were
arranging their stands, otherwise quiet
ness reigned in the big East side build
ing. There are fifteen men now watch
ing the building at night.

FORTUNATE REPRIEVE.
Governor Gordon of Georgia Saves
the Neck of an Innocent Man.

Governor Gordon of Georgia Saves
the Neck of an Innocent Man.
The action of Governor Gordon in re-
prieying the death sentence of Henry
Pope, cOlOred, has saved the state
In February last Miss Hendricks, a
young white lady of ChatoOga county,
was brutally assaulted by negro. The
crime was perpetrated in a lonely place,
and before help could come the assailant
had fed and effectually disappeared.
For several weeks lynching parties
secured the county, but to no purpose.
In May, last Henry Pope, negro en-
plOyed at the Rock Run mines, was ar
rested, charged with the crime, and
taken to Summerville, the county seat.
There he was at once recognized by
Miss Hendricks as her asSailant. 1t was
only by Judge Mattox's agreeing to call
an immediate term of court that the
mans neck was saved. There Pope
was convicted on the clearset possible
testimony, and he was sentenced to
death. AS the date of the execution
grew near some of the citizens began to
feel that perhaps Pope was an innocent
man. He was run out of Summerville
under cover of night to save him from
lynchers, brought to Atlanta, and the
governors action has been rewarded by
the arrest of the genuine raviSher in
Somerset, KY, where he is now in Jail.
His name is John Taylor, and he has
made a full confession of his guilt. As
soon as the necessary legal steps can be
taken Henry Pope will be released, and
he will once more be free man. Taylor,
was "given away" a week ago by his
wife, who had said he had told her that
he was guilty and babe her good
by forever. She received letter from
him which showed that he was in Somer-
set, KY, and this she showed to a neigh
Dor, who arrested him. Taylor, after
his arrest, made no attempt at any de-
NAL, but acknowledged at once that he
was the guilty man.

MORE REFORM WORK.
A Desperate Daylight Burglar
Yesterday Morning.

A Desperate Daylight Burglary
Yesterday Morning.
John Long, the attorney, was some
what excited man yesterday morning,
and expressed his opinion of the pro-
lection afforded by the police commits
sion in very emphatic manner. The
reason for this was that he had an en-
counter with burglars Saturday night.
1t seems that DR.. and Mrs. A. III. Lind
ley, residing at 1928 Hennepin avenue,
went East some days ago and Mr..
Long was sleeping in the house. He
was awakened about midnight by some
strange noise at the back door, and,
taking his revolver, went to see what
the matter was. AS he opened the door
he raw someone running away and fired
three or four shots, but the fellow did
not stop. In the morning Mr.. Long ex-
amined the door and found that some
one had tried to secure an entrance.
About 8 o'clock he went down town,
and returning about two hours later,
was somewhat surprised to see the
door open. He went in, and
there saw sight that almost
took his breath away-and he is law
yer, too. Clothes presses, trunks,
bureaus and closets had been broken
open and the various contents scattered
all over the house. Silk dresses and
other clothiug had been thrown down
and trampled upon, and all manner of
damage done. Thus far it has not been
determined just what has been taken,
but it is known that some 800 worth of
sealskinS. one coat, two clOaES, one muff
and several caps are gone. There is no
clue to the burglars.
